I didn't advance that idea on list but actually think that it could be
a good idea to clarify bugs in the DFSG.  I think it would be a lot of
effort and don't want to lead that effort, but if someone does want to
lead that effort and spend the necessary time I would not want to
stand in their way.

I do think it is important that whoever leads that effort be a member
of the Debian community not an outsider.
